Refugee Economies: Rethinking Popular Assumptions

Description
In the words of UN High Commissioner for Refugees, Antonio Guterres, we face ‘the most serious refugee crisis for 20 years’. Recent displacement from Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, South Sudan, and Somalia has increased the number of refugees in the world to 15.4 million. Significantly, some 10.2 million of these people are in protracted refugee situations. In other words, they have been in limbo for at least 5 years, with an average length of stay in exile of nearly 20 years. Rather than transitioning from emergency relief to long-term reintegration, displaced populations too often get trapped within the system. This report aims to challenge the current model of donor state-led assistance, drawing on ground-breaking new research on the economic life of refugees. By attempting to understand the economic systems of displaced populations, we hope to generate new ideas which can turn humanitarian challenges into sustainable opportunities.

Vertreibung in Afrika: Interessenvertretung und Politische Spannungen von Migrationsgovernance

Principal investigator Franzisca Zanker (Principal Investigator)
Description
"Im Februar 2019 versammelten sich die afrikanischen Führungsspitzen in Addis Abeba, Äthiopien, für den 32. AU Gipfel bei dem verkündet wurde, das Jahr den „Geflüchteten, Zurückkehrenden und Binnenvertriebenen“ auf dem Kontinent zu widmen. Politische Entscheidungen müssen jedoch von den individuellen Mitgliedstaaten umgesetzt werden und die politischen Dimensionen wie (und mit wem) einzelne afrikanische Staaten Migration in ihren eigenen Kontexten bewältigen ist weitgehend immer noch unterforscht, trotz der politischen Aufmerksamkeit die (afrikanische) Migration in jüngster Zeit bekommt. Dieses Projekt strebt an, empirisch auf diese Forschungslücke zu reagieren und die politischen Interessen und gesellschaftlichen Diskurse zu beleuchten, die mit Migrationsgovernance in (und zwischen) vier Fällen in Sub-Sahara Afrika verbunden sind, namentlich Süd Sudan, Uganda, Zimbabwe und Südafrika. Diese Variation erlaubt einen Vergleich von Gast- und Entsendeländern, unterschiedlichen Konfliktarten sowie regionalen Unterschieden. Menschen sind auf unterschiedliche Arten und Weisen in Bewegung und nur durch die Betrachtung wie insgesamt mit Geflüchteten und anderen Migrant*innen umgegangen wird, können wir nachvollziehen, wie verschiedenen Formen von Migration womöglich politisch instrumentalisiert oder gegeneinander ausgespielt werden. Aus diesem Grund versteht dieses Projekt Vertreibung als nur eine Form von Migration (neben z.B. reguläre und irreguläre Auswanderung und Einwanderung). Theoretisch wird das Forschungsprojekt anstreben Migrations- und Konfliktforschung zu verbinden. Insbesondere Debatten über Friedensförderung erweitern unser Verständnis der politischen Dimension von Migration aus mehreren Gründen. Erstens, ähnlich wie bei der Friedensförderung, baut Migrationsgovernance auf einem komplexen Zusammenspiel von diversen Akteuren auf, das u.a. auch die politische Handlungsfähigkeit von nichtstaatlichen Akteuren hervorhebt. Zweitens, können wir die Idee der Intervention – sowohl externe und interne- als heuristisches Werkzeug nutzen, um die unterschiedlichen politischen Auswirkungen zu differenzieren, die verschiedene Ebenen von Migrationsgovernance haben können. Darauf aufbauend wird das Projekt außerdem die verschiedenen Interessenvertretungen (staatliche und nichtstaatliche) betrachten, die bei der strategischen Entwicklung von Migrationsgovernance beteiligt sind, und ihre Rolle sowie die Art der Einflussnahme beleuchten. Somit wendet das Projekt eine mehrstufige Perspektive an, um zwischen verschiedenen Arten von Handlungsebenen(extern/intern) und Akteuren (staatlich/nichtstaatlich) zu differenzieren. Methodisch ist die Forschung qualitativ und umfasst eine Mischung aus Sekundärforschung (Süd Sudan, Zimbabwe) und Feldforschung (Uganda, Südafrika), welche Interviews und Fokusgruppen beinhaltet. Um partizipative Forschung zu ermöglichen und Ungleichheiten in der Wissensproduktion zu reduzieren, wird die Forschung in enger Kooperation mit Afrikanischen Forscher*innen durchgeführt werden."

Conflict-Induced Migration in Sudan and Post-Referendum Challenges

Authors Munzoul ASSAL
Description
Migration in Sudan is caused primarily by protracted conflict and includes various categories of migrants: IDPs, refugees, and to some extent economic migrants. This paper deals primarily with internally displaced persons (IDPs), particularly those from southern Sudan who live in Khartoum. In 2004, it was estimated that 17 percent of Sudan’s population had been internally displaced. Following the signing of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement (CPA) in January 2005, few IDPs returned to the south. Additionally, in January 2011, southern Sudanese citizens exercised the right of self-determination. The future of those southerners who are still in Khartoum and other parts of north Sudan is uncertain. In Khartoum, the government declared that southerners will be treated as foreign nationals after the independence of south Sudan on July 9th 2011. Therefore, the issues of conflict-induced migration will survive the peace agreement and the south gaining its independence. This paper is based on existing data on IDPs and on the author’s research on the same subject. It analyzes the causes and the consequences of the conflict, in particular forced migration. The paper empirically analyzes living conditions and coping strategies in two IDP settlements in Khartoum: Al Salam and Al Fatih. Un très long conflit est la cause principale des migrations au Soudan qui incluent différentes catégories de migrants : déplacés internes, réfugiés, et migrants économiques dans une certaine mesure. Ce papier traite principalement des déplacés internes et notamment ceux originaires du Sud Soudan qui sont installés à Khartoum. En 2004, il a été estimé que 17 % de la population soudanaise avait été déplacée à l’intérieur du pays. Après les Accords de paix en janvier 2005, peu de déplacés sont retournés dans le Sud et, en janvier 2011, le Sud Soudan a exercé son droit à l’autodétermination. Dans ce contexte, l’avenir des Soudanais originaires du sud qui sont encore à Khartoum et dans le nord du pays est incertain. A Khartoum, le gouvernement a déclaré qu’il considérera les Soudanais du sud comme des étrangers après l’indépendance du Sud Soudan le 9 juillet 2011. Le problème des migrations provoquées par les conflits est donc amené à perdure malgré l’Accord de paix et l’indépendance du Sud Soudan. Ce papier est basé sur les données disponibles sur les déplacés internes et sur les recherches menées par l’auteur sur ce sujet. Il analyse les causes et les conséquences du conflit, en particulier les migrations forcées. Il propose une analyse empirique des conditions de vie et des stratégies de survie dans deux camps de déplacés à Khartoum : Al-Salam et Al-Fatih.

MACIMIDE Global Expatriate Dual Citizenship Database

Description
The MACIMIDE Global Expatriate Dual Citizenship Dataset charts the rules that existed in near all states of the world since 1960 with regard to the loss or renunciation of citizenship after a citizen of a respective state voluntarily acquires the citizenship of another state. The central variable of the Dataset is the dualcit_cat variable. This is a categorical variable whose values may be used to interpret, in broad lines, the position of a country with regards to the expatriate dual citizenship. The dualcit_cat variable reflects what consequences the legislation and legal practice of a country attaches to the voluntary acquisition of a foreign citizenship. The value of this variable depends on a number of criteria, including whether a citizen of the reference country who voluntarily obtains a foreign citizenship automatically loses – in principle – the citizenship of the origin country, and whether a citizen of the reference country can renounce that citizenship. The value assigned to dualcit_cat reflects the position of the country on the 1st of January of the reference year. Any subsequent changes in legislation will be reflected in the dualcit_cat value of the following year and included in updated versions of the Dataset. The dualcit_binary variable is a recoding of the dualcit_cat variable. This variable can be used for broad comparisons of the dual citizenship positions around the world. The possible values reflect whether the legislation of a country, in a given reference year, provides for the automatic loss of the origin citizenship (1) or not (2). All data have been centrally collected and refer to specific provisions in national law.

World Population Policies Database

Description
Since the mid-1970s, the World Population Policies Database, last updated in 2015, provides comprehensive and up-to-date information on the population policy situation and trends for all Member States and non-member States of the United Nations. Among several areas, the database shows the evolution of government views and policies with respect to internal and international migration. The migration strand covers internal migration, immigration, emigration, and return. The Database is updated biennially by conducting a detailed country-by-country review of national plans and strategies, programme reports, legislative documents, official statements and various international, Inter-governmental and non-governmental sources, as well as by using official responses to the United Nations Inquiry among Governments on Population and Development.

UN Inquiry on population and development - International Migration

Description
The Inquiry gathers critically important data for monitoring the implementation of the Programme of Action of the International Conference on Population and Development and other international agreements, including the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The Inquiry, mandated by the General Assembly in its resolution 1838 (XVII) of 18 December 1962, has been conducted by the Secretary-General at regular intervals since 1963. The Twelfth Inquiry consists of multiple-choice questions, organized in three thematic modules: Module I on population ageing and urbanization; Module II on fertility, family planning and reproductive health; and Module III on international migration. In 1994, Member States attending the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) in Cairo agreed that “population-related goals and policies are integral parts of cultural, economic and social development” and recommended that actions be taken “to measure, assess, monitor and evaluate progress towards meeting the goals of its Programme of Action”. The year 2019 will mark the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Cairo conference and adoption of the ICPD Programme of Action, which continues to provide crucial guidance for addressing the fundamental development challenges facing the world today. Population issues are also at the core of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development adopted in 2015. The United Nations Inquiry among Governments on Population and Development (the “Inquiry”) gathers critically important data for monitoring the implementation of the ICPD Programme of Action and other international agreements, including the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The Inquiry, mandated by the General Assembly in its resolution 1838 (XVII) of 18 December 1962, has been conducted by the Secretary-General at regular intervals since 1963. The most recent Inquiry, the Eleventh, was implemented in 2014.
